My Russian professor one year had an after-semester dinner party at her own house, complete with some of her family and friends showing up to play traditional music and teach us about the foods they made and stuff. There was indeed dancing and instruction of such, as well. And yes, everyone clapped, because that’s a traditional way to keep beat with music, especially music meant for movement.
It was a really small class, but all the same, that sort of thing does happen, especially with language teachers in my experience, because they also want to teach culture. Those were most of my coolest (other than my very wacky physics prof).
Only if you’ve never been to small-class-size college. “College professor takes a lesson to do something eccentric instead of the class curriculum” happened in at least one class at least once a semester. You uh, learn a lot about your professors.
can confirm. community colleges tend to have a lot of professors that give a damn. (and some absolutely batshit ones as well. you gotta take the bad with the good)
And then everyone clapped/applauded?

I once had a teacher take us all down the pub
Another who decided the lesson would be best spent in the woods and we didn’t get any work done
Another you could distract by getting him talking about the Simpsons and barely do any work
My history teacher used to make us role play as Romans and wear togas
Like these things happen all the time
